Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece Thin pizza crust (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Cooked chicken breast (shredded or diced)
- 1 cup Cremini or button mushrooms (sliced thinly)
- 1 cup Ricotta cheese
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.
Brush the thin pizza crust with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, ensuring the edges are evenly coated. Set it aside.
In a small bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, minced garlic, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper to create a creamy white sauce.
Spread the ricotta mixture evenly over the pizza crust, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
Top the white sauce with the shredded chicken and sliced mushrooms, distributing them evenly across the pizza.
Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese over the toppings to cover them generously.
Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over the pizza for added richness.
Carefully transfer the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly before garnishing with fresh chopped parsley.
Slice and serve warm. Enjoy your gourmet White Pizza Chicken and Mushroom Thin Crust!
